Find out what medications are covered

When it comes to coverage, keep in mind that some medications may have requirements before filling them. Also, if a medication doesn't fit your budget, it's a good idea to remember your doctor is here to help—talk to them about lower cost options.

Prescription Drug List

The easiest way to find out if a prescription is covered is to check the Prescription Drug List (PDL) — which takes the most commonly prescribed medications and organizes them into cost tiers. For more on the PDL, see the Prescription Costs section.

Is your medication covered in the PDL?

Large Group: Prescription Drug Lists

Small Group: Prescription Drug Lists

Here are a few PDL tips:

Some medications might have coverage rules, which means there may be requirements — like getting an approval from your doctor — before filling them.
Prescription Drug Lists change frequently, so check yours often.
If a medication doesn't fit your budget, ask your doctor if you can use lower cost medication options.

Ordering your medications

You have choices in the way you order your prescriptions.

Pick up your medications at any of our UnitedHealthcare network pharmacies and it may help you save on costs.
